When you find a band who you love as individuals, who you love musically, who are committed to touring and working to get their music heard by every living, breathing human being, you just hope that you might have the opportunity to work with them. Today, we are ecstatic to announce that on August 19th, we will  release Ark Life’s debut album, The Dream of You & Me.

One year old and 120 shows in, garage-soul upstarts Ark Life have toured coast-to-coast, sharing stages with Of Montreal, Gregory Alan Isakov, PHOX, The Moondoggies, The Head & the Heart, Mount Moriah, Ryan Bingham, J. Roddy Walston & the Business, Ha Ha Tonka, and more. A mile high rock&roll ocean – equal parts mischief, humor, and heartthrob – they pull as much inspiration from contemporaries like Heartless Bastards, Elvis Perkins, and Sallie Ford as from the band’s enduring loves for Leonard, Aretha, The Band, and the classic campfire singalong. Ark Life recorded The Dream of You & Me with producer Eric D. Johnson (Fruit Bats), and we at the Greater Than Collective will move mountains to make sure as many people as possible hear this album we love.

To celebrate this announcement, we’d like to invite all of you to join us at the Greater Than Social Club on Tuesday, May 13th at Lannie’s Clocktower Cabaret. Ark Life will be playing with their good friend, Kyle James Hauser, and we have an excellent night of comedy as well with Ben Kronberg, Mara Wiles, and Kristin Rand. Cover is $5, the show is all ages, and doors open at 7pm. Please have a drink with us, since you, our dear friends and supportive fans, are one of the reasons we’re all so excited to be working together.
